34-06 Side Skirts

These didn’t go on quite as smoothly as they could have.  I held each one in place, match drilled at one end, then match drilled at the other so they would be stable and hold in place with clecos.  Unfortunately, the stretch/curve of the fuselage meant that when I went from end to end with match drilling & clecoing, there was about 1 mm of excessive length compared to the placement of the original hole.  It looks smooth after being all riveted in place, but I know that it’s there.
